proxtrem-  Chances are that the $4 'charges' you're seeing are actually authorizations; a way to make sure that that card is active and working properly.  The good news is that they usually reverse within a few days at most, so the should automatically be refunded.  If you need any assistance with more account specific issues, give our customer service a call and we'll be more than happy to help you out.

Hi, I have the same problem but I'm in Mexico. I had to send a fax with my data because the bank didn't put the validation code in my statement, I called paypal and they said they got the fax and information was complete and ok. The customer care guy (Jacob) said he was giving my documents to his supervisor and they will be contacting me within 24hrs. That was last sunday and I haven't been contacted, my card and account are not vinculated yet and I have not got refund whatsoever. Besides the contact number in Paypal Mexico's web page is not working (an answering machine says that) and the mail form always shows an error. I'm sorry to contact you this way but I REALLY need to get my card and bank account vinculated.
